LMA/Kawhi - where do they rank among duos?

[navy]

Pun intended - They are getting slept on.

They've been great post ASB. If LMA keeps this up and brings it in the post season, the Spurs vs Warriors are a lock for the WCF. Not that it needed anymore reassurance.

OKC can beat the Spurs in a 7 game series.

I wanna say the Clippers with Blake Griffin might be able to, but I'll hold off on that.

Of the top 8 teams in the league at the moment, the Thunder have the worst defense and lead the league in games lost after leading 3 quarter with 10 (last I checked).

I just don't trust their role players and that defense to go all the way.

OKC has always given the Spurs problems in recent years purely due to their athleticism. Westbrook is a problem without a solution. Parker and Mills simply cannot guard him, which means we have to put Green on him.

They are certainly near the top. Other than Westbrook and Durant, I can't name another duo FOR SURE that is better. And when looking at STRICTLY forward duos, they are EASILY the best. The thing about Leonard and LMA is that they BOTH play within the flow of the game. Both would prefer to play that way. But BOTH score well enough to takeover a game when its time too. It will making building around them in San Antonio easy because of their styles of play.

They have been really good this season

Spurs are 15 - 2 when Duncan rests

[zbott]

51% FG for the season, 86% FT for the season. 9 Boards while playing alongside Duncan and Kawhi. Going in the paint way more than he ever has, shooting more FT's.

This ^ Doing good work blending in to the Spurs system ..

I'll never understand the LMA hate. He is a beast. Watch what he did to Houston in the playoffs. So underrated consistently. Top 5 pf for the past 7 years.

Beasting
